Jonah 1:1-17

Jonah was a prophet from the northern kingdom of Israel who was called by God to preach a message of judgment and warning to the Assyrian city of Nineveh.  Instead of immediately obeying, he decided to run from the Lord, setting sail for the distant city of Tarshish.  But God does not give up so easy on His errant children.  There’s a lot we can learn from this prophet on the run.

• What is your “Nineveh”?
• Where is your “Tarshish”?
• You can run, but you can’t hide from God.  This is good news for us!
